2013 has been a watershed year for Lambda Legal and the LGBT and HIV rights movement as a whole.
Some of the biggest victories were a direct result of Lambda Legal’s four decades of work and the enduring legacy of our earlier wins.
Here is a brief look at some of the year’s highlights on the road to equality.

Some people within our community feel that resources and attention are disproportionately directed towards marriage equality, perhaps at the expense of transgender rights, immigrant rights or poor people’s rights—all communities that fall under our LGBT umbrella.

The Supreme Court was unequivocal in its statement of the equality of married same-sex couples when it struck down Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) in its United States v. Windsor decision.

Same-sex couples are still processing how the Supreme Court's recent rulings in California's Proposition 8 and the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) could change their lives and their relationship to the government: from health insurance, to retirement, to green cards.

Virginia couples who have suffered from discrimination and are interested in sharing how marriage discrimination harms their families or being a part of a campaign for the freedom to marry are encouraged to fill out a survey.

The argument made by the Prop 8 proponents that Judge Walker's injunction against enforcement of the initiative only applies to the plaintiff couples is totally lacking in merit. To use a “technical” term – it is pure malarkey.
